Hey all! I'm brand new to Jenny! I've been on the program for 4 whole days! I'm looking for someone to offer encouraging words & hold me accountable Mon-Sat! I meet with my consultant on Sundays! So, if you're in South Bay or West LA, I'd love for us to be friends & support each other, maybe even work out together! Hopefully you're in the same boat as me & have a lot to lose. I've got a a whole 145lbs to drop!

Congrats on the 3.3 lbs. off!

As far as finding someone to hold you "accountable," well there are a bunch of us on the boards.

Seriously, the more you use the boards the more you're going to feel as if you know us all. We come in all ages, sizes, points along the weight loss journey, etc. (Just think of us as cousins, aunts, and "older" sisters and friends.) ;)

We have folks from all over the U.S. and if you spend anytime on the boards, you'll notice that we do try to inspire one another and keep each other "accountable."

For instance, if you slip up, you "have" to come and "confess" on the boards. ;)

No, seriously, of course you don't have to do that but many of us do because we want to be held accountable and to hear some ideas about how to avoid a similar slip in the future.

Most of us post on the General forum but post where you want, we'll find you. :D

Congrats again on your loss! It's a great start. :)

Tammy, now we're not strangers anymore. :)

We're all on this journey together (some are starting like you, some are further up the road, and some of us have completed the trip and can alert you to "problem spots) so join our little group - actually not so little - and we'll get you through this together. You're not alone anymore! :)

Thanks Savana! I'm loving the support! As, the fattest person in my family, I often felt alone in my struggles! Thanks to my Jenny family, I feel embraced & motivated!
